🇬🇧 BRITISH Rugby Fan Reacts To The NFL's Seattle Seahawks Legion Of BOOM

[@bodaggit7991]

💙💚Loved and miss my Legion of Boom.💙💚

[@kabirconsiders]

Yeah those guys were awesome together

[@michaeltipton5500]

Glad you like my Football team. Not doing so great these days but they'll be back soon.

[@sgtpickles1319]

I live just south of Seattle and am a Seahawks fan, seeing these guys in their prime was amazing. Honestly I would love to see a reaction just on Kam Chancellor's hits.

[@kabirconsiders]

You're in luck, I reacted to Kam last month! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHzXY3iJaryZsMU&pbjreload=101&ab_channel=KabirConsiders

Born and raised bleeding Blue and Green. Been a Seahawks fan since birth, this era of the Seahawks is legendary! Back to back super bowls, demolishing one thanks to the greatest defense of all time! I attended the super bowl parade and had seats in the stadium for the end of parade festivities!

5:52 This is the play they call "The Tip", up there with "The Double" (which, if you haven't heard of that, check out the Dorktown series Secret Base did on the Mariners, and pay attention to episode 3, "The Battle for Seattle" [plus, this is the call Macklemore and Ryan Lewis sampled in their song, "My Oh My"]). 6:44 This is the game that has been dubbed the "Weed Bowl," as both teams were from places where marijuana had just been legalized a year prior. During the L.O.B. years, the Seahawks went 8-4 in the playoffs, including the first road playoff win (against the team currently known as the Washington Football Team or the Washington [Name Redacted] in the 2012 Wild Card) for the Seahawks franchise since the 1983 Divisional Playoff game against the Miami Dolphins; the third coldest game in NFL history in Minneapolis for the the 2015 Wild Card (Seahawks won, 10-9, scoring the only touchdown all game, and winning off a missed field goal from Vikings kicker, Blair Walsh, who got shit despite the fact that he had scored all 9 of the Vikings points); and those two Super Bowl appearances. Since the L.O.B. years, the Seahawks are 1-3 in the playoffs. If you haven't, yet, look into the World League of American Football/NFL Europe. KTO did a great video back in 2017 called "What Happened To NFL Europe?", that explains the quirks that set the league apart from the main NFL, and explains what led to its downfall.

thanks for that and i do miss those days. the games 49ers vs seahawks were great games and ones to always look forward to. who know maybe one day both of our head offices will get their heads strait at the same time and we can have great games again.

Bro in prime of lob 49ers defence was no joke it was always primetime games

I’m crying from the memories of the LOB and 49ers game those games were good

[@a00141799]

Hey Kabir. Thanks for reacting to the Legion. 🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈 I've lived in Seattle for the past 21 years, but I am not from here. I'm from San Diego but my favorite teams have always been the Raiders and the 49'ers. However, back in 2012 also adopted the Seahawks. The fans support in Seattle for the Seahawks is 1000x greater than that for the Raiders (who have now moved to Las Vegas) and the 49'ers. Everybody, every business, every school, state and local governments, go absolute over the top for the Seahawks.🖐🖐🖐 A tradition here is for everybody to wear the jersey of their favorite Seahawk on the Friday before a game. And believe me EVERYBODY, wears a jersey. Doctors, nurses, the mayor, the governor, students, and kids and even toddlers.👨‍👨‍👧‍👧👨‍👨‍👦‍👦👨‍👩‍👧‍👧👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩👩‍👩‍👧‍👧 We never did anything like this back in Cali. Seahawk "12th Man" flags on every building. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁 Private and public. You would not believe it unless you see it in person. I have heard that cities like Pittsburgh, Green Bay, Buffalo, KC, Dallas and maybe Philly have fans along this level,💜💜💜 but not every city supports their team to this extraordinary level.⭐⭐⭐ Game day here is like a state holiday. Seattle also has a Soccer ⚽⚽⚽ team called the Sounders and their fans are perhaps the most fanatical in the US. ⚽⚽⚽You would easily think you are in Europe or South America if you were at a game. Except that games here are really family affairs. You will see toddlers, families with babies, old grannies, priests and nuns at all sporting events here. Not just big beer drinking brutes beating their chests and waving their team's flag.🏁🏁 Yeah, Seattle is definitely a sports town. 😛😛😛😛😛 Another great reaction Kabir. 👍👍👍👍👍👍 You smashed it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!

[@kabirconsiders]

Man, it sounds like Seattle is the city I'd move to if I were to relocate. It sounds like such a cool place. I think I'll try to find a vid that shows the city on Fridays before games, seeing literally everyone wearing a jersey sounds incredible!

[@a00141799]

@@kabirconsiders Hey bro, we would love to have you up here in Seattle. (Hey, its good enough for Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos who companies both originated here and live here.) In my opinion, this is the most beautiful part of the US. We even have rodeo's. (small ones.) LOL.. The weather might even remind you of London. Cool and wet. Washington state has consistently been voted in the top 3 best states to live in. In 2020 and 2021 it has been #1. For sheer beauty, high wage jobs, quality of life. Affordability (near the bottom. Its quite expensive here.) Come anyway Kabir. A smart, resourceful guy like you will have no problem gathering himself and becoming successful here in the "Land of Plenty."

[@nessiedahir885]

Blue Friday is an actual thing. Love it here. NFC against 49ers still gives me goosebumps

[@talltulip]

My husband is a Seattle firefighter, and sometimes works a shift at the football/soccer stadium during games. He has often commented on the difference between the Seahawk crowd and the Sounder crowd. Just as you've said, the Sounder crowd is much more family-oriented, without drunken people acting like jerks, etc. Which is not to suggest that this happens a lot at Seahawk games either (any more so than at any other NFL game), but between the two, there is a noticeable difference.

[@Jacob-sb3su]

I remember that Atlanta game. I cried. I was a 24 year old at the time and I just remember seeing that team rally around eachother and lift their brother up like that touched me

[@kabirconsiders]

Its moments like that that make sports so great

[@leslie3765]

It's worth the watch the story of the players of the Legion of Boom and how and when they were drafted and the amount of love for one another and their fight to prove ESPN wrong that weren't any good.

[@kabirconsiders]

I’ll check it out! They were a very impressive unit

[@davidhohn9106]

Earl Thomas, Richard Sherman, Kam Chancellor Brandon Browner, Walter Thurman, and Byron Maxwell. It was a wonderful year.

[@davidhohn9106]

Earl not only snagged all kinds of fumbles, it was so fun to watch his 5'10 BOOM knock bigger guys ass over tea kettle, then give them the stink eye, lol. ~ Mrs H.

[@topherwhite370]

Long time season ticket holder. LOVED watching them take the field. Awesome. BTW - the “12” flags are a reference to the fans. The fans are the “12th man” on the field.

[@MrJordwalk]

Unrelated to the subject of this video, but Connor McDavid just his 500th point and hit that milestone in his 369th game, matching the very thing Sidney Crosby did over the course of his first 5 years.

[@kabirconsiders]

Very impressive, would you say he's an all time great already?

[@TopsailPirate106]

Maxwell was the most underrated of the group. He was incredible for a few years tho. Played great complementary football. Browner made a pro bowl at least, he was the second most underrated. But Maxwell as the only member of the legion to not make one

[@codygregg6683]

Bro, you should checkout Steve Smith Sr. 5'9" wide receiver with huge hops played like he was 6'4". Burner but not your normal fragile burner. Toughest dude on most fields and actually threw Sherman on the dirt a couple times lol. He even punched a teammate in the mouth over something I dont remember. Dude was David on a field full of goliaths.

Thanks Cody I'll check him out! I love it when small guys can punch above their weight class, so to speak

@@kabirconsiders that Steelers defense was ridiculous but it was a much different game back then. In the 70's you could do just about anything on defense compared to today where you can't even touch a receiver before they touch the ball. There also weren't any rules protecting quarterbacks yet. It's kind of like comparing Sergio Ramos to Bobby Moore. Both great defenses/defenders but in completely different eras and in a different play style. Fun fact also, Bobby Moore played for the Seattle Sounders in the late 70's LOL small world
